SHAMEFUL ABUSE.
Heaped upon Noted EngIlshman for His
Open Honesty.

NAVY, vi EnBlhnu, Nus GOT lnto prOies-
sional trouble for writing the following
open letter to the editor OF the London
Family Doctor;
IL believe it to be the duty of every
physician to make known any means
or remedy whereby sickness can be
prevented, and it is for this purpose
write to give you my experience both |
here and abroad. ask the publication
OF the statement that people may be
warned before it is too late, to say to
them that there is at hand means by
which they may be restored to perfect
health. 1t is well known to the medi-
cal world, and indeed, to the laity, that
certain disease is making terrible |
havoc; that next to consumption it is |
the most fatal, and that when fully de- |
veloped there is nothing to be done for
the sufferer"
Physicians and scientists have long
been trying to throw light upon the
cause, and ii possible, find in nature
medicine for this fatal malady. They
have shown, absolutely, that the blood
purifying organs of vital importance,
are the kidneys, and that when they
once fail, the poison which they
should take out OF the blood is carried
by the blood into every part of the
body, developing disease"
I'm my hospital practice in England,
India and South America, and also
while surgeon in the Royal Navy Of
Great Britain, gave great deal OF
attention to the study OF diseases OF the
kidneys and urinary organs, and found
that not only was the cure of chronic
Brignt's Diseases hopeless, but that
kidney diseases was remarkably preya-
lent; much more 80 than generally
known, and was the cause OF the MAORI
ty of cases OF sickness, and further, that
the medical profession has no remedy
which exerts any absolute control over
these organs in disease"
"Some time ago when ! had case
which resisted all regular treatment,-
which is very mited,-complicated
with the passing OF stones from the
kidneys, much against my will per-
United my patient to use Warmers safe
cure, OF which | had heard marvellous
results. In his case the result was sim
ply marvellous, as the attack was Sc
we're one, and development very grave,
for an analysis showed per cent. of
albumin and granular tube casts.
"The action of the medicine was sin
gular and incomprehensible to me. !
had never seen anything like it. The
patient recovered promptly, and is to-day
Il we'll and healthy man. This stimula-
ted my inquiry into the merits of the
remedy, and after analysis found it to
be OF purely vegetable character, harm
less to take under all circumstances.
| Casting aside all professional
prejudice gave it thorough trial. as
was anxious that my patients should be
restored to health, no matter by what
medicine. l prescribed it in great
variety OF cases, Acute, Chronic, Bright's
Disease, Congestion of the Kidneys,
Catarrh OF the Bladder, and in every
instance did it speedily effect cure"
"For this reason deem it my duty
to give to the world this statement re-
garding the value of Warmers safe cure.
/ make this statement on facts | am
prepared to produce and substantiate.
1 appeal to physicsans of large practice
who know how common and deceptive
diseases of the kidneys are, to lay aside
professional prejudice, give their
patients Warmers safe cure, restore
them to perfect health, earn their graft
.ude, and thus be true physicians
81 am satisfied that more than one
half of the deaths which occur in Eng
land are caused primarily, by impaired
action of the kidneys, and the conse-
quent retention in the blood of the
poisonous uric and kidney acid War
ner's safe cure causes the kidneys to
expel this poison, checks the escape of
albumen, relieves the inflammation and
prevents illness from impaired and i'm
poverished blood. Having had more
than seventeen years experience in my
profession, ! conscientiously and en-
phatically state that have been able to
give more relief and effect more cures
by the use of Warmers safe cure than
by all the other medicines ascertainable
to the profession, the majority OF which,
| am sorry to say, are very uncertain
in their action"
Isn't that straightforward, manly
letter."
Indeed it is"
"Well, but do you know the author
has been dreadlully prosecuted for
writing it?"
"How so? He has spoken the truth
out of school and his fellow physicians,
who want the public to think they have
!, a monopoly in curing diseases, are ter
ribly angry with him for admitting pro-
fessional inability to reach certain dis.
; orders.

sation among the titled classes and the
public. This Jared the doctors terri.
, bly,. The College of Surgeons and
Queens College, from which institution
he was graduated, asked for an explana-
ton of his unprofesslonal conduct, and
notified him that unless he made re-
traction they would discipline him.
